Horslips Interviewed by John Lockhart 04-24-78




Horslips were a 1970s Irish rock band that composed, arranged and performed their own Celtic rock songs and music based on traditional Irish jigs and reels. They were one of the first, if not the first, of the Celtic rock bands of that era. Formed in 1970, they disbanded in 1980, although in 2005, the original line-up has regrouped and performed a small number of gigs.
Horslips were one of Ireland's leading rock groups of their era, although their success overseas was mixed, they came to be regarded as one of the defining bands of the celtic rock genre, with a revival of interest in their music in the late 1990's, among a whole new generation of fans.
